What is a Driving Privilege Card (DPC)?
License Class = Class D (cannot be used as ID by any government entity)
Status = Undocumented Immigrant without Lawful Presence Status
Expiration = Birth Date in the First Year
A driving privilege card is a Class D issued to drive motor vehicles (not a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) or motorcycle) and may not be used as a means of identification by any Utah government entity. Every resident of Utah who drives a motor vehicle on the highways must have a valid Utah license, learner permit, or temporary driving permit. A regular adult driver is 21 and over, and the minor "provisional" driver is 20 and under.
Persons who would need to obtain a DPC:
- Individuals who are legally paroled in the U.S. (not eligible for a REAL ID document.)
- Individuals who are unable to establish lawful presence.
- Individuals who are ineligible for a U.S. Social Security number must obtain an Individual Tax Identification Number (ITIN) from the IRS.
- Individuals meeting these requirements would not be eligible to obtain a commercial driver license or identification card.
- Individuals who are residents of Utah.
Under Utah law, you are responsible for refraining from driving if there is any uncertainty about your physical, mental, or emotional status, which may affect driving safety. If the condition persists, you are responsible for reporting it to the Driver License Division.
When applying for a Utah driver license, your privilege to drive cannot be suspended, revoked, disqualified, or denied in another state.
